Winter Inspiration

Click picture if you wish to see the original post.

About a month ago Artbeads.com came to me with another challenge. Create a winter inspired design using our products. WINTER!? that should be easy for me right!? I live in Canada, right in the snowbelt too. Well I have a confession. I don't like the winter, or the cold. However, as I hibernate I must admit my favourite thing to do is watch out the window as the snow falls, and it reminded me of an inspiration I received last winter and the piece I designed with that inspiration.As you can see it was a beautiful snow like crystal weave cuff. Well I took the beautiful inspiration of my wonderful London in the winter and this cuff and came up with what I think is an absolutely elegant, timeless and ageless Watch with a snow band of weaved crystal like beads. It is then tied with a beautiful dark silver organza ribbon you tie closed. The watch face is encrusted with a circle of beautiful diamond like gems.

About Me

Hi, my name is Elizabeth M. Duquette and I'm the girl behind the blog. Growing up three years behind my sister, I was constantly fascinated by what she chose to wear and buy, mainly because eventually it got past right down to me anyways. I LOVE colour although over the past few years, I have favoured more subtle tones. I love hanging out with my woodworking entrepreneur fiance, going on day trips, hanging out with friends, going on walks is one of my absolute favourite things to do though! I get alot of my inspiration from the world around me. I'm as much of a naturalist as I can afford to be. I am a depression, anxiety, and psoriasis sufferer and talk about that alot. I love supporting the handmade community.
